    Clearing firm won't adjust basis of covered shares to account for non-covered wash sa

    I have the same clearing firm. I came back from overseas in April to find this firm treated some of my trades as wash sales in spite of it having a few years of my doing trades the same way without calling me out for wash sales. To be candid, I have not examined the specific trades and...

    FWIW, I posted on this forum or another, the respected and highly traveled John Mauldin stated within the last two months that his most FAQ is "which will we have, inflation or deflation ?" To which he claims he has no intention on being flippant, but his answer is "YES !" His explanation...

    Central Banks may never run out of ammunition literally, but figuratively their ammunition is thought to eventually bounce off their targets, as oft stated by others including FED members. Here is Bill Gross's take: Arguably the BOND GURU and co-CEO of Pimco, the world's largest bond fund...

    Unless I heard or understood wrong, the last time the FED Head met Congress, he intimated the Fed was out of bullets and continued the whine about needing a feckless Congress to do its job and initiate viable fiscal policy. It was then or perhaps later an official statement came out of the Fed...
